TROUBLESHOOTING
Odours
Excess static in clothes
after drying.
Clothes have dried for too long (overdried).
• Overdrying a load of clothes can cause a buildup of static electricity. Adjust
settings and use a shorter drying time, or use Sensor Dry programmes.
Drying synthetics, permanent press, or synthetic blends.
• These fabrics are naturally more prone to static buildup. Try using fabric
softener, or use shorter Timed Drying time settings.
Clothes have damp
spots after a Sensor
Dry programme.
Very large load or very small load. Single large item such as a blanket or
comforter.
• If items are too tightly packed or too sparse the sensor may have trouble
reading the dryness level of the load. Use a Timed Drying programme for
very small loads.
• Large, bulky items such as blankets or comforters can sometimes wrap
themselves into a tight ball of fabric. The outside layers will dry and
register on the sensors, while the inner core remains damp. When drying
a single bulky item, it may help to pause the cycle once or twice and
rearrange the item to unwrap and expose any damp areas.
• To dry a few remaining damp items from a very large load or a few damp
spots on a large item after a Sensor Dry programme has completed, empty
the lint filter, then set a Timed Drying programme to finish drying the
item(s).
Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution
The appliance has an
odour.
Are you using the appliance for the first time?
• The smell is caused by rubber material that is attached to the appliance
inside. This kind of smell is a rubber's own smell and disappears
automatically after using the appliance several times.
Do you smell an odour during use?
• When washing the clothes, use the detergent in accordance with the
manufacturers recommendations. If you use the detergent excessively not
according to the recommendations, undissolved detergent may
accumulate on the clothes and cause an odour.
• You can smell odours from the clothes if the clothes were left in the
appliance after drying or in the washing machine after washing. Unload
the clothes promptly at the end of the drying or washing cycle.
• Ensure you can smell same odour in the washing machine. If so, clean the
tub of the washing machine referring to the washing machine user
manual.
• Always take care of both lint filters clean. If any residues were left in the lint
filter after drying, it may cause odours. And also dry the lint filter
completely after cleaning.
